Trainer Richard Fahey looks to have found a good opportunity here for King's Crest, who gets in off a lower mark then five of his last seven wins. His yard are in decent nick and the gelding stays this trip well. so he can take advantage here. There are plenty of questions to answer elsewhere in the field and perhaps the blinkered Michael's Dream has least to answer. The gelding sees out the trip well and has been going pretty well without winning in the last few weeks, though he has never run here and he does not look well in with the selection at these weights, but can make the frame. Ampoule steps up to this trip from 10 furlongs, but gives the impression that he will stay. However, others are preferred with his yard being a little out of sorts at present. Molly's Secret steps up to this trip again for the first time in a year, and though she has gone well over shorter in that time she does not convince that she sees out 12 furlongs. In contrast Mandoob needs every yard of this mile and a half and has won twice over the trip at Wolverhampton. However, a lack of course form here is a slight worry, but moreso the fact that he looks firmly exposed at present.
